Agenda Item: Open Agenda

History is often shaped in moments of uncertainty, where power is fragile and legitimacy is contested. This committee places delegates at the center of one such moment—the brief existence of the Provisional Government of Western Thrace.

Emerging in 1913 amid the chaos of the Second Balkan War, this provisional entity was formed in a region caught between collapsing imperial authority and expanding nation-states. As control over Western Thrace shifted, local actors sought to establish a governing structure to secure their political and social survival.

Delegates will navigate a complex landscape of regional rivalries, competing claims, and fragile alliances. Questions of sovereignty, minority rights, and international recognition will define the course of debate, where every decision carries lasting consequences.

There are no perfect outcomes, only choices that shape survival or disappearance.

Here, history is still being written.
